Hi:
Would you like to add a make rules to help us porting ICE to Tru64UNIX? We now using Tru64Unix Version 5.1A.

I think Tru64 is a important UNIX,even now it will be replaced with HP-UX.


Thanks a lot!

    Mostl likely you won't have to change much. I suggest to use the HP-UX rules as a basis.

    You may want to start with 5.1B, because it provides /dev/random and /dev/urandom. This will make the UUID generation in IceUtil a lot easier to port.

    Also have a look at Make.rules.SunOS if you use the Compaq C++ compiler. Both Compaq C++ and Sun CC 5.4 use template repositories.

    Cheers,

    And my patch file is here
    ../../bin/slice2cpp --ice --include-dir Ice --dll-export ICE_API -I../../slice ../../slice/Ice/LocalException.ice
    when I execute the slice2cpp manually,I got the follow output:
    ../../bin/slice2cpp --ice --include-dir Ice --dll-export ICE_API -I../../slice ../../slice/Ice/LocalException.ice
    exception system: exiting due to multiple internal errors:
    exception dispatch or unwind stuck in infinite loop

    It's hard to say why slice2cpp is crashing. I recommend you look at the stack trace with the core dump.

    You should also double-check icecpp, since so far we've only built it for 32 bit.

    Finally, you should use the latest or a very recent version of Compaq C++ ... it would be sad to be affected by an old bug!

    Cheers,
    Bernard
